Forecast Discussion

As the remnants of Ian spin slowly off the coast of Delaware and into the Atlantic Ocean, high pressure moves over the Southern Appalachians. Temperatures were a step warmer than yesterday and become increasingly warmer to end the work week. Skies are clear.

A dry front moves through late Friday, bringing a few clouds and no rain. Behind the front, a Canadian high moves in with much colder but still dry air for cooler but sunny weekend. We could see some scattered frost in the deeper valleys on Sunday morning. Temperatures warm up again on Monday.

The tropics are peaceful for the most part. An unnamed disturbance off the coast of Venezuela is poised to develop but not expected to directly affect us here in North Carolina.
